As you know, we just went through Harvey. Fortunately, we weren't affected but many friends were. My question to you, is if we know areas are susceptible to hurricanes, flooding, etc. should federal money be spent to assist in rebuilding especially if the probability is fair that the area will be impacted in the relatively near future?
What about on barrier islands such as Galveston, Orange Beach, Navarre Beach, the Keys, etc.?
If you knowingly buy a house near a river, bayou or reservoir, should you be able to purchase flood insurance that's deep discounted by the federal government knowing that the taxpayers are going to take a loss for every flooded home?
What say you?
